1996 Bounder Water LEAK

Does anyone know what kind of insulation would be used in the walls of a 1996 Fleetwood bounder. I recently purchased a motorhome that apparently leaks water and has for awhile im guessing. The previous owner and his wife both had said it ahsnt leaked since probably 10 years ago and that they have an rv service place that checks everything yearly lol. Either way it leaks and I need to repair it by probably replacing the rubber roof but I was curious what type of insulation is in the walls and weather it will go mouldy or not thanks for any info and help.

    I am sure the insulation in my 94 Bounder is styrofoam. I don,t think there should be any mould with that.

    Welcome to the forum. I don't know what type of insulation is used in your Bounder.
    Before you replace the roof, do a thorough inspection. Check all the seams and openings. If the roof isn't in poor condition you can use Eternabond to cover seams or tears. Then the roof can be recoated with a rubber roof coating.
    You may be able to get several years out of your current roof.

    If you decide to replace the roof, use Eternabond on the new roof.
    It will help keep it leak free.
    Don't hesitate to ask questions, someone will have the answer.
